    Apparently they never made it to the bar.

    I would have been safe.

    Right, who wears balaclavas here? Get it right. They were wearing T-shirts over their heads like you see with people driving on the road. You know the leader would throw a fit when 20 dudes all ask for 50 peso balaclavas. That's 1000 pesos, you could buy a lot of rum with that.

    And all wearing black T-shirts? This sounds like a real team effort. That's some high level coordination. Maybe this was an American CIA operation. Create an abduction problem and the Philippines invites the soldiers back to Subic.

    They are probably still on the run/moving them around to different safe houses.

    To add insult to injury, they probably needed the foreign nationals to pay the fare so they could get back to the safe houses.

    MANILA - Gunmen holding three foreigners and one Filipina hostage have slipped past a naval cordon and escaped to remote mountains in the southern Philippines without making ransom demands, police said Wednesday.

    Elite Army troops were trying to track the bandits while air force helicopters were readied for a possible rescue as the abductors trekked into Davao Oriental province, a hotbed of Maoist and Islamic rebels, said Senior Superintendent Aaron Aquino, the region's deputy police commander.

    The gunmen seized two Canadian tourists, a Norwegian employee and a Filipina from a luxury island resort on Monday night, adding to a string of kidnappings of foreigners in the conflict-wracked south since the 1990s.

    "Last night, we received information that the kidnappers and their victims have been sighted... they are in the Davao Oriental area," Aquino told DZBB radio.

    "Our Scout Rangers are following their tracks. They are on their trail. The Air Force is also helping, ready for insertion
